Because he had to prepare for investment and business, Chu Xuan's plan to buy a car had to be put on hold first.

The next morning, Chu Xuan made a phone call and hurried to a commercial street next to the UCLA University campus.

In about ten minutes, Chu Xuan arrived at his destination, which was a store close to the street, with an average flow of people, and a note for rent was posted on the side of the storefront.

Chu Xuan stood at the door of the façade, looked around, and after looking at the geographical location of the street and the surrounding façade composition and residential areas, he walked into the façade.

The façade was empty and there was nothing. Obviously, this façade is idle.

In the corner of the façade, a big white fat man is sitting on a small stool, playing with his mobile phone with his head down.

Chu Xuan coughed lightly and stepped forward.

"Is it Mr. Montreal?"

The big fat man raised his head, saw Chu Xuan, and nodded.

Montreal is about thirty years old, he is the owner of this storefront, and Chu Xuan called him before he went out.

After a slight look, Chu Xuan had a certain understanding of Montreal, this guy was full of wealth, and he was able to have such a façade at this age, obviously he was also born rich.

"I called you last night and this morning." Chu Xuan smiled and stretched out his hand.

Montreal suddenly got up and shook hands with Chu Xuan, and said with a smile: "It turns out that you want to rent a storefront." ”

As he spoke, Montreal stared at Chu Xuan, but he frowned slightly, revealing a thoughtful look: "Man, why do I think I've seen you somewhere?" ”

Chu Xuan was slightly stunned, but then smiled: "I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Chu Xuan, Chinese." ”

"Chu Xuan? Chu Xuan...... Wow, you're the coach of that Lakers? ”

Montreal muttered twice, and suddenly his eyes widened, and he shouted in surprise.

Montreal's reaction surprised Chu Xuan, he should be a celebrity now, and there should be a lot of people in Los Angeles who know him.

Seeing Chu Xuan nodding, Montreal said happily: "Chu, I'm a fan of the Lakers, and I've seen your coaching." They all say that your presence has brought a very positive and powerful change to the Lakers. Now that the Lakers have such a good record, I also think you're doing a really good job, you're really good. ”

Obviously, this is a die-hard Lakers fan.

Chu Xuan smiled: "Mr. Montreal, I'm glad you can say this about me." I'm just doing my job, and it's my life's goal to make the Lakers better. ”

Montreal smiled: "Chu, I believe that every Lakers fan thinks this way, and the Lakers are getting better. ”

Chu Xuan nodded, and the reaction of the fans made him very pleased, at least it made him feel that it was an affirmation of him and a positive motivation.

"Chu, can you give me an autograph? I think you're going to be a great coach for sure, and at that point, it's not going to be that easy to get your autograph. ”

Chu Xuan smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Of course there is no problem, this is my honor." But before we do that, I think we need to talk about the key things for today. ”

Montreal patted his head and said with a smile: "Look at my memory, I actually forgot about it." Chu, let's talk about the rental of the façade first. ”

After that, Montreal simply began to introduce the general situation of the façade.

"My façade is 1,120 square feet, with a studio of 40 feet and a depth of 28 feet, which allows you to do a lot of things. For example, it is possible to open a restaurant, or open an entertainment venue, or open a brand store. As for the geographical location of the façade, I believe you have already investigated it. Because of the renovation of the streets, the flow of people here is much less than before. However, as long as the road of ** Street is repaired, I believe that this street will be revitalized again. ”

In the process of speaking in Montreal, Chu Xuan looked around, he did have some liking. Importantly, the street is just a few minutes away from UCLA's campus.

"Mr. Montreal, I'm interested in this shop, but I don't know, how much does it cost to rent it?" Chu Xuan asked with a smile.

Montreal smiled: "According to the rental price of our store in Ximu District, if it is 1,120 square feet, the monthly rent is 3,360 US dollars." However, Chu, as your supporter, I decided to give you a cheaper price, $3,000 a month. This price is definitely very low in these streets. ”

Chu Xuan nodded secretly. Montreal says that the rental price is not high. You know, within the more than 100 core cities of downtown Los Angeles, rents are generally very high. The shop is located in the West Wood district, next to the school, and there are many residential areas around, so the price is completely acceptable.

"By the way, Mr. Montreal, are you the owner of this upstairs property?"

The street-facing buildings are all three-storey, followed by high-rise residential buildings. In general, there are residents living on the upper floors of the façade, but some people will choose to use the second and third floors for commercial use.

"The second and third floors are mine, but the third floor is occupied, and the rent is due in two months," Montreal said. As for the second floor, it is vacant and can be rented together if you need it. ”

After hearing this, Chu Xuan nodded.

Actually, according to Chu Xuan's plan in advance, he wanted to rent all three floors at once, but the current situation is not bad, at least he can save a little money.

"If the rent on the third floor is due, can you rent it to me as well?" Chu Xuan smiled.

Montreal thought for a moment and nodded: "There should be no problem, the tenants above are students, and they have no intention of renewing their contracts." So, as long as the house is empty, I will definitely leave it to you. ”

Montreal rejoices that the façade has been empty for some time. And he relied on collecting rent to eat, and he was already a little worried. Now he was able to rent out all three floors at once, and he was extremely happy. When he promised Chu Xuan, he had already begun to think about how to not renew the contract with the tenant on the third floor.

"Well, Mr. Montreal, there's no problem on my side. If you're okay, I thought we could talk about the specific lease contract. I'm short on time, so we'd better get the contract done today. Chu Xuan was thinking about the competition in three days, and he also knew that he couldn't waste too much energy and time on this.

"No problem at all."

Montreal made an OK gesture.

In just one noon, Chu Xuan and Montreal signed a lease contract.

Chu Xuan rented a three-storey store in Montreal for $5,500 a month, tentatively for one year, and paid three months' rent in advance, or $16,500. After the lease expires, Chu Xuan has the right of first refusal to renew the lease. In addition, because the rent on the third floor is still two months due, Chu Xuan will pay $2,000 less.

In other words, Chu Xuan only had $14,500 missing from his bank card at noon.

This is already a huge amount of money for Chu Xuan today.
